The defeat Of prohibition in Ore
gon seems to emphasize the fact
that public sentiment is constantly
drifting away from that plan Of
temperance reform, whereas a few
years ago the tendency was decid-
eddy in its FAVOR. Four States
Michigan, Texas, Tennessee and
Oregon-have successfully rejected
il within the past eight months
and there is probably not now a
State in the Union where il is Is
strong as it has been heretofore
This can only be attributed to a
growing feeling on the part Of in
telligent voters that there is a
wiser and more practical way to
deal with the evils Of the liquor
trafiic.-Vicksburg Herald.

A new torpedo, to make modern warfare
more deadly than at present has been in
vented by Jason L. Irving, of San Fran
cisco, of which the Gail says;
This new torpedo surpasses all others, it
is claimed, from the fact that il may be dis
charged from the lannon's mouth at dis
tances TO DE regulated by the charge such
distances being from one to five miles. II
is further claimed for this invention that il
is equally available on land or at sea.
Against steel netting or plated ships or the
strongest armor il is powerful and never
failing weapon. Most men who know
anything about torpedoes say that the most
difficult TO solve or to reconcile with their
perfect makeup and management is their
recoil and the conclusion incident to their
explosion. Mr.. Irving claims that he has
successfully overcome this great difficulty,
and that by very simple process he has.
in his invention, mastered the subject of
recoil and conclusion. Another feature of
the Irving torpedo is that, If by any
mistake it misses the object al which ii has
been directed, it can be recovered and again
employed. This is not the case with any
other torpedo SO far known.
If this torpedo, which the invento. in
tends exhibiting in due time to the mill
tary authorities, proves successful, it will
be eminently adapted for the defense of
this coast, which, from its peculiar forma-
ton, it is said, can only be properly de-
Tended by topedoes and torpedo-boats
Mr.. Irving is modest. retiring man,
who has devoted most of his life to study
and to the sciences. He is well known in
the East and in the colonies as mining
expert and engineer. He is very practical,
and among his many inventions is pat
ent fuel, which has been tried with the
most satisfactory results in this city.

New RATES ON BAGGAGE.-The San
Francisco Chronicle of yesterday says
. Overland passengers will be pleased to
learn that reduction in the excess baggage
rates of the Southern Pacific Company is
to take effect on the Goth instant. On each
100 pounds in excess of the 15O-pound
limit for each passenger, the rate has been
Sl3 to the Missouri river on first-class bag
gage and $40 on third-class, the classical
ton being governed in each case by fhe
class of ticket held by the passenger. Com
mercial men, theatrical people and others
who have, under the interstate law, been
Obliged to pay the full excess rates, have
been loud in their demands for relief in
the extortion, and it is believed that these
petitions have had their effect in inducing
the railroad to reduce the charges. The
excess rate will hereafter be $40 a hun
dred pounds from California terminals to
the Missouri river, and 50 to Colorado
points on all classes. The rates per pound
will be 10 and 9 cents, respectively.
